The Miami Dolphins have moved onto their offseason preparation after being eliminated from the postseason, but four teams are still in contention, including two from the NFC.

Sunday’s NFC Championship will be a showdown between the San Francisco 49ers and Philadelphia Eagles, who may have the two most talented rosters in the NFL this year.
